So, I had a confrontation with a fucking MAGAt today [View all]

I wanted to wait on this so the positivity of today could take front and center.

Scenario: In a store buying some house maintenance items. Owner, the fucking MAGAt, is ringing me up, what follows is after some banal conversation.

FM: You know it’s still hurricane season?

Me: Yep, until November 30th. Side note, I’ve been teaching meteorology to pilots for a quarter century; FM didn’t know that.

FM: You know the government controls hurricanes?

Me: That’s utter bullshit, I teach meteorology for a living. Why do smart people fall for such nonsense?

FM: (Shocked at being confronted): You probably don’t believe that that the Lord is coming back.

Me: You’re free to believe anything you want, but I believe you just lost a $1000 a year customer.

FM stammers as I walk out the door with my purchases never to return.

Epilogue: between losing customers like me and tariffs, I’m pretty sure this business will be long gone by next year.
